The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Monday came up with a draft framework
for sale of loan exposures, whereby it has proposed to deregulate the
price discovery process for the sale of loan exposures.
According
to the draft framework, sale of standard assets may be by assignment,
novation or a loan participation contract, either funded participation
or risk participation, whereas the sale of stressed assets may be by
assignment or novation. Novation refers to the substitution of an old
contract with a new one.
It further said that direct assignment transactions shall be subsumed as a special case of these guidelines.
In
another major development, the central bank has proposed to do away
with the Minimum Retention Requirement (MRR) for sale of loans.
"The price discovery process has been deregulated to be as per the lenders' policy," said an RBI statement.
Further,
as per the draft rules stressed assets may be sold to any entity that
is permitted to take on loan exposures by its statutory or regulatory
framework.
Also, some of the existing conditions for sale of non-performing assets have been rationalised.
The
guidelines are applicable to all Scheduled Commercial Banks, excluding
Regional Rural Banks, all Indian financial institutions including
NABARD, NHB, EXIM Bank, and SIDBI and, all non-banking financial
companies including Housing Finance Companies.
